    "Isn't that a shocker," she growls, "It's like some sort of curse in Shadowclan, any cat that is close to you is either taken away or dead."

    "So it must also be an accident that right after I became an apprentice, my Mother just so happened to be hunting, got too close to the Thunderpath, and got killed!" she hisses, "Starclan hasn't smiled down on Shadowclan once, Fangflash. I keep trying to get the memory of her out of my head, but just like hiding the birth of half-clan kits, it's hard!"

    "I will help you," He growled,"I will prove to you that these kits are going to be loyal to ShadowClan."

    "No one has to prove to me anything," she snarls, "As long as I know they are, they will be." She rolls onto her other side, face staring at the wall and tail curled protectively around her kits. "I should never have stayed in Shadowclan," she murmurs, "The curse of being half-clan still hasn't lifted."

    "I hope Starclan's happy." She closes her eyes and slowly drifts to sleep, the feel of the sleeping kits next to her warming her.

    The following morning, Flametail wakes up and looks around the cave. "Still in this daft prison," she growls, "Perfect." She licks the heads of her small kits and purrs, "Stay here, Momma will be right back." She gently straightens up, pads out of the nursery and toward the fresh kill pile. Sniffing it, she looks and sees a plump rabbit. "Don't want this to go to waste." She grabs it by the neck and drags it back to the nursery, lays it next to her nest, and eats it while the kits suckle.

    Flametail rips off a leg and chews on the tough meat and turns to see Fangflash sleeping. She grabs the rabbit leg and throws it at him and calls, "Wake up, fur-ball, before you get stuck in here, too."

    He snorted and woke up with a start,"What!" He meowed alarmed. And saw the rabbit leg,"Oh," And rested his head on his paws.

    "Let me guess, a rabbit decided to turn carnivore and it chased you." She laughs and then wipes a slight tear from her eye with her claw. "I still can't see how queens like to be in here," she says, looking around the cave.

    He sighed,"You'll get used to it," He meowed, and stood up, giving Flametail a lick on the head goodbye, he headed out to camp.
